Authentic Salsa

This home made salsa is fast and easy to make and lasts for at least a week. I got it from mother-in-law and have made slights changes. If you do not have a comal you can use a non-stick pan. With low-fat chips it makes a great low fat snack. We also eat it with fajitas. If you don't like spicy then start with just one jalapeño since their spiciness varies.

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 7  roma tomatoes
• 1⁄2 onion, chopped
• 2 -3  jalapenos, cut in half and seeds removed
• 4  garlic cloves, chopped
•  cilantro
•  salt and pepper
•  garlic powder (garlic salt)

Directions

1. On a comal place whole Roma tomatoes and jalapeños to slightly burn on all sides.
2. Once the skin starts peeling off they are probably ready.
3. Once ready, put in a blender.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients to the blender.
5. Blend all ingredients 15- 20 seconds or until they look mixed.
6. Try the salsa and if you think it needs more of something add it.
7. I usually use 4-5 stems of cilantro and add the garlic powder after I have mixed the ingredients.
8. Sometimes I don't need to add extra garlic powder.
